The Patriots will receive a $37,000 credit on their 2026 salary cap because Christian Ellis will not earn at least one of his 16 LTBE active roster bonuses this season.

Rhamondre Stevenson's new 2026 cap number is $7,423,529. It consists of:

$4.75M salary
$1.6M signing bonus proration
$823,529 active roster bonuses (14 LTBE, 3 NLTBE). $58,823.53 per game
$250K off-season workout bonus

LTBE = Likely to be Earned

The Jets downgraded WR Garrett Wilson and CB Azareye’h Thomas to out for TNF.

If this was a hoax, wouldn’t releasing the full Epstein files to the public exonerate Trump? If he had nothing to hide, why would Trump be working so hard to prevent its release?

Annie Karni @anniekarni Trump himself called Boebert, regarding her signing onto the Epstein petition and spoke to her yesterday, I am told. Trump playing phone tag with Mace. So far, they are not planning to remove their names from the petition.

this should be obvious but the reason Trump is working desperately against Epstein transparency is because he's guilty

The signing.

Rob Gronkowski arrives, says hello to David Andrews, head athletic trainer Jim Whalen, director of scouting administration Nancy Meier as he is set to sign a ceremonial one-day contract.

Rob Ninkovich and Brian Hoyer are among the former teammates here.

Cardinals WR Marvin Harrison Jr. recently underwent surgery for appendicitis and is out this week with the potential for additional weeks.

Tuesday's non-participants for the Patriots:

- Austin Hooper (concussion)

NE practice squad transaction:

🏈 Signed: RB Jonathan Ward

🏈 Released: WR Brenden Rice

ANALYSIS: Ward was on p-squad from 10/28 to 11/4 before being replaced by Rice. Return suggests some doubt Rhamondre Stevenson (toe) and/or Terrell Jennings (knee) will be ready Thursday.

Since The Trade,
- Anthony Davis has been worth 0.6 wins above replacement (WAR)
- Luka Doncic has been worth 7.2.

And that's ignoring the playoffs as well as the projected future.

Sources: Jaguars star CB/WR Travis Hunter underwent season-ending knee surgery, with eyes set on 2026. It was an LCL repair.

He’s expected to return within 6 months to full football activities.

There was no other damage besides the LCL. Some good news there.

Bengals QB Joe Burrow is returning to practice this week — a major step towards playing again later this season.

Burrow’s recovery from turf toe surgery is on track and now Cincinnati will open Burrow’s 21-day practice window in hopes of having him in action sometime next month.

The Giants are firing coach Brian Daboll, sources say. A promising and frustrating season leads NYG to have an opening.

After another lead evaporated yesterday, Brian Daboll is out.

OC Mike Kafka is interim coach, per me and Mike Garafolo.
